Don't let the detractors stop you from posting what you feel (and I feel, for that matter!).

I won't. The day I start tailoring my opinions to point score with a lot of people I'll never meet on here it will be a sad day.

A lot don't agree with me. I don't agree with many of the glass always half full brigade but it is what it is.

If people believe with a few tweaks that an academy that produced absolutely nothing for years and years suddenly starts producing Championship standard players and all they need is game time then more fool them.

Playing Devil's Advocate here let's say the players are up to Championship standard as many here believe.

What changes do you think the academy have made to go from producing no youngsters to the required standard for years to getting a lot into the team in one season?

Okay, some positives.
I fully expected us to get a hiding yesterday, and we didn't. So that's a plus. Okay, being pleased because we 'only' lost 1-0 isn't the best positive, but I'll go further - the game could have ended 1-1 just as easily. Then we'd all be saying a draw against one of the top sides was a great result.
If they are a 'top side', then they struggled to impose themselves enough that they could score more than one. So either they're not a top side, or we're better than we think.
Player positives ? Playing Moore and Collins looked to be a good idea, and though Bagan is always prone to errors, he laid on more crosses in five minutes than Brown did in an entire half. Vaulks looked knackered.
Yes, it was poor football, and yes, it was dire to watch. But we didn't get a drubbing, and we were still in it right up to the final whistle.

While I can see what you're trying to say here it was more Bournemouth missing a host of chances that meant we were only one goal adrift.

On another day it could have been 4 and should have been.

Interesting and informative information - in the 24 hours after we beat Forest the OP posted 8 times. In the last 24 hours, since we lost to Bournemouth, he has posted 26 times, every single one negative and critical, as usual. Says it all for me.

But you said I don't post after wins. Which is it?

At least we can prove this one, we're still waiting for the signed statement from your Sheffield relative on the Madine loan fee.

You appear to be becoming TLG’s lackey. You have obviously been brown nosing him far too long and it is adversely affecting your judgement. Associating with someone like that wont do your ‘street cred’ any good. Remember, he doesn't like our owner, apparently at least partly because he is from the far east and dresses differently.

Interesting observation, did you count how many times I've interacted with him or something? Honestly don't think I've spoken to him on here much so I'm wondering how you've come to that conclusion DML, perhaps your age is showing and it's impairing your memory

You will grasp at any straw you can won't you?

He doesn't like Tan because he is from the far East and dresses differently? Are you serious?

As for street cred, telling lies and disappearing when the team get beat does little for yours.

Come on, even for you that is preposterous. Accusing of TLG of being racist, and before you say, "where did I say that", that is what you have insinuated.

The reverse of that Maidstone game would be January 1st, 2000, when City battered Exeter 6-1 at Ninian Park. That was Hammam's first season at the club, when Earnie scored shedloads of goals, but oddly he didn't score in that one.

The second of Andy Jordan's 2 own goals! I think I'm right in saying that was the last time we had 6 different goalscorers.

I don't think , given the miserable sods background, he would be concerned about the origin of the owner of our club

It's just a hunch
